Ethically Sourced

We work side by side with specialized geologists and engineers, so that we can enhance each step of extraction, prioritizing the safety of our employees and protecting the environment.

We perform reforestation projects on our own in degraded areas near the mine site, where it was previously used as livestock grazing.

In this way we can reconstruct the natural flora prioritizing the native species of the region.
